Bug#439798: eog: Please show file type in image information

[Matijs van Zuijlen]

Package: eog
Version: 2.18.2-1
Severity: wishlist


What I tried to do:

  - I want to know if an image shown on a web page is a jpg.
  - Right-click on the image in epiphany, select Open Image
  - Eog comes up, showing image called viewimage9BC50T.tmp. Extension is
    clearly useless.
  - Select View|Image Information, maybe that will show the type.
  - No such luck.

It would be nice if the file type were shown.
